Title: Process for the incorporation of dna molecules into microorganisms with methyl-specific restriction systems
IPC: C07K14/36
Filed: 1989-05-05
Abstract: There is disclosed a process for the 
incorporation of DNA into a microorganism that, 
because of natural restrictions in the organism, 
normally would prevent or limit the incorporation of 
the DNA. The process involves the selection of an 
intermediate host organism that has no restrictions 
to the incorporation of DNA. The DNA is then 
transferred into the intermediate host which is 
readily accomplished because there are no 
restrictions. The DNA is then isolated from the 
intermediate host and transferred into the target 
organisms. Using this process the natural 
restrictions of the host organism are circumvented 
and DNA is transferred from a source organism to a 
target organism that normally would not be possible. 
In this manner desirable characteristics from the 
source organism can be imparted into the target 
organism.

Title: Method and apparatus for synchronizing parallel processors using a fuzzy barrier
IPC: G06F9/45
Filed: 1989-07-27
Abstract: A barrier is used to synchronize parallel processors. 
The barrier is "fuzzy", i.e. it includes several instructions in each 
instruction stream. None of the processors performing related tasks can 
execute an instruction after its respective fuzzy barrier until the 
others have finished the instruction immediately preceding their 
respective fuzzy barriers. Processors therefore spend less time waiting 
for each other. A state machine is used to keep track of 
synchronization states during the synchronization process.

Patent EP-0571913-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06K7/14
Filed: 1993-05-24
Abstract: The camera system (10,100) of the present invention simultaneously searches for a number of differing optical acquisition targets (44). Upon detecting an acquisition target (44) it decodes according to corresponding differing decoding algorithms. To facilitate this operation there is a system bus (170) as well as a dedicated data bus (172) for applying a scan signal of an optical scanning device (154) to differing detection circuitry. This system may decode, for example, both bar codes and concentric rings. The scan signal is constantly adjusted according to both a dark reference for correcting offset and a white reference for correcting gain. The gain is also corrected according to the scanning rate as well as the amount of illumination present. A measure of this illumination may be applied directly to the optical scanning device (154) by way of a fiber optic cable (402) which transmits light from the illumination source (15). When detecting concentric rings the system of the present invention uses stored templates which represent a number of transformations of the target (44), for example, a number of magnifications. When the transformation of a target (44) is determined, the corresponding stored template is correlated with the scan signal from the optical scanning device (154). To detect concentric rings the scan signal is applied to interleaving circuitry (180) which correlates more than one scan at a time to provide constant throughput even though the stages of the detector operate at different speeds. Optical calibration is eliminated by fixed optics wherein all optical elements are rigidly mounted at very close tolerances. The illumination source (15) is disposed on one focus (22) of an ellipse (18) wherein the other focus (24) is disposed at the maximum scanning distance and the reflector (14) is formed to define the illumination ellipse (18) to maximize the light applied to the object (42). The various heat producing elements are disposed in sealed compartments (40a,b,c) which are cooled by forced air which is circulated through a heat exchanger. A real time focusing system is provided wherein the distance from the scanning device to an opposing surface is constantly monitored and the system is constantly focused according to the distance. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0661625-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06F9/38
Filed: 1994-10-21
Abstract: A four stage branch instruction resolution system for a pipelined processor is disclosed. A first stage of the branch instruction resolution system predicts the existence and outcome of branch instructions within an instruction stream such that an instruction fetch unit can continually fetch instructions. A second stage decodes all the instructions fetched. If the decode stage determines that a branch instruction predicted by the first stage is not a branch instruction, the decode stage flushes the pipeline and restarts the processor at a corrected address. The decode stage verifies all branch predictions made by the branch prediction stage. Finally, the decode stage makes branch predictions for branches not predicted by the branch prediction stage. A third stage executes all the branch instructions to determine a final branch outcome and a final branch target address. The branch execution stage compares the final branch outcome and final branch target address with the predicted branch outcome and predicted branch target address to determine if the processor must flush the front-end of the microprocessor pipeline and restart at a corrected address. A final branch resolution stage retires all branch instructions. The retirement stage ensures that any instructions fetched after a mispredicted branch are not committed into permanent state. <IMAGE>
